This time, I went the Interstate to Atlanta and then went west from there. We both agreed that ti was much better today.

Either way, it's a helluva long drive. next time will be with son & ex most likely. Wooo.

Yes!!! So awesome that I am not the only one who named their GPS.

My navigon is named Calgon. :D

There are lots of options.See?

Hoo, boy. Looks like maybe a trip to Radio Shack.

Ewwww.

so this whole process has not impressed the cats.

This is Puck. Well, his butt. He was wedged between the scratcher and their kennels, but I moved the kennels to clean the room. When I walked back in...

If i can't see you, you can't see me!

moved the scratcher and him out to the living room, set up two scratcher side by side.



Maggie tried to show it was safe by parading in front.



To no avail.

Didn't happen with Scratchy. We move the box and he finds it.

What do your cats do?

They'll use nothing but a box. Doesn't matter where it is--moving it doesn't matter to them.

In fact, putting down a CLEAN box, anywhere, guarantees that at least ONE of them will suddenly HAVE to pee, right that instant, why are you still standing there GET OUT OF THE WAY!!!

And for travel, they each have a small kennel, bed and a box. They ride in there, then get to have outside time at the hotel after I've checked the room.

On the trip here, it never occurred to me to check the mattress--spent 30 minutes after one cat discovered a hole in the lining of the box frame and in he went. Sigh. The grey cat really does NOT like change much at all. Poor old boy.

OK, off to bed. See ya!

Maybe they put the new box in a stupid spot?

Night.

Wow, everybody left both threads.

I'm around. Just lurking.

Did you get everything thrown out you were planning on?

Still here as well. Debated getting a movie, but it's a tad too late, now. don't really want to clean anymore--isn't much left, just the bathroom, after showering tomorrow, laundry that I'll start when I climb in to bed for the night...too late to vacuum more, no point in mopping yet,


I hate waiting.

I haven't gotten everything finished 100% with anything I've been trying to do lately. I've gotten a lot of things done, just nothing completely yet. 15 days to change that.

Ah, you won't be driving alone? That's good.

pooflady wrote:Ah, you won't be driving alone? That's good.

Correct. It's a long trip to make solo, I'm very pleased to have company for the whole stretch. And, we'll stop in Colorado to visit my family, and a couple other stops along the way to say hi to friends.

Edit to add: Bed time. Night wootonia!

Night all. Tomorrow.

AZ, hope you're feeling better.

'night all.

'morning to all who follow.

Yes, I had a portable (boom box).Try Radio Shack. (edit// I see Mavyn has allready made that sugestion.) The only problem is the antena needed to face south and for me at least only worked while facing south at a window. They may have improved since I had it.

Oh, and good morning all.

Mornin'.

Feelin' better-ish.

I had a cat once that would do that. I think he might have went to "live on a farm". Can't remember.

Good morning everybody! Daughter has lost her phone. We looked everywhere we could think of last night. As soon as it is light enough I'm going dumpster diving. I took out trash last night. Well, I'm taking hubby dumpster diving. Hopefully there won't be too many bags on top.

edit: No phone. We were at Bible School last night. I'll have to wait until 9 and go by the church. The Verizon website says she returned a txt after we left church but we can't find it in the car or the condo. Sigh... we have another phone so I can switch hers over but I can't cut her old one off. She is usually very conscientious about keeping up with it so I can't complain too much.

morning all.

//smack daj

sucks about the phone, joyner. You'll find it soon enough.

Found the phone. It was between the front seats in the car. I had looked two or three times. Hubby had looked. Daughter had looked. It was sort of caught up in the slide the seat mechanism. I don't see how we didn't see it when we all looked under the seat. Praise the Lord! Now I just have to find out what the txts say that daughter was so terrified that someone would see!!!

LOL! She's dating a boy and hasn't told you yet!

My ex lost his phone day before going on a trip. He'd used it while packing, couldn't figure out how it got lost, tore the house apart, no phone. He panicked, we went and bought him a new one that afternoon.

That night, getting ready for bed, he took the suitcase he'd been packing off the bed, lo and behold! His phone.

Sigh.

Morning all!

Cleaning, squashing everything in to the car...

!!!

I have yet to lose mine but Mrs. Ice constantly misplaces hers. It is always in her purse, or between cushions, or in the bed sheets...how she loses it I've yet to figure out since it rarely leaves her ear.
Anyway, have a safe trip Mavyn and update us on your travels when you are able.

No I'm @ work. Friday is usually a catch up on administrative stuff day so I actually get to spend some time in my office.
